Description
SP set-1 is a standard spindle set comprising four measuring spindles (SP1, SP2, SP3 and SP4) for rotational viscosity determination. Designed for routine laboratory rheology work, the set supports reliable viscosity measurements when paired with compatible low-viscosity rotational viscometers. The spindles enable selection of an appropriate geometry for different sample consistencies within the low-viscosity range, helping laboratories cover typical QC and R&D applications with one compact accessory kit.
This article is part of Viscometers, in Density & viscosity measurement.
Supplied as a complete 1-set package from manufacturer IKA, SP set-1 is intended especially for use with the ROTAVISC lo-vi Complete and ROTAVISC lo-vi Advanced instruments. Net weight is approximately 0,460 kg (gross weight 0,469 kg), making the kit easy to store and transport beside the viscometer. The open spindle configuration supports straightforward immersion into sample vessels and rapid changeover between geometries during multi-sample workflows. Ideal for laboratories performing comparative viscosity checks, formulation screening or incoming goods control, this standard spindle set extends the measuring flexibility of ROTAVISC lo-vi systems without requiring additional specialised adapters.

Questions about SP set-1, Standard spindle set (SP1 - SP4)
What is this article?
SP set-1, Standard spindle set (SP1 - SP4) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Viscometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A capillary viscometer times the flow of a liquid through a tube. A rotational viscometer twists a spindle in the liquid. Both need a stated temperature. Kinematic and dynamic viscosity are different numbers. The capillary size has to put the flow time in the range the method allows.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
